Action Requested
Suspend, by motion, the engineering design contract with Hakanson Anderson for the extension of
Twin Lakes Road, the Kelley Parkway alignment and a new high capacity intersection with US Hwy 10.
Enter into, by motion, a Master Partnership Contract 1028386 Work Order No. 1 with the Minnesota
Department of Transportation for cost sharing on the US Highway 10 (US 10) Study.
Approve, by motion, $280,606 in professional services from SRF Consulting, Inc, associated with
professional services for the US 10 Study.
Background/Discussion
On May 6, 2019, the City Council expressed consensus for participation in a US 10 corridor/access study from
Trunk Highway 101 to the Anoka/Sherburne County line. Staff was unable to get MnDOT to initiate the study
or agree to participate.
On August 5, the Council approved a professional services contract with Hakanson Anderson to extend Twin
stth
Lakes Road from 171 Avenue to US 10, the Kelley Parkway alignment from the Yale Court to south of 165
Avenue and a new high capacity intersection with US 10 (TLR/KP). The city applied for and was awarded $2
million in federal funding and a MnDOT local partnership funding grant of up to $1 million for the project.
The city began preliminary design on the TLR/KP project. Through the design, the traffic analysis determined
the standard intersection control (traffic signal) for the new US 10 intersection with Twin Lakes Road/Kelley
Parkway would not function at an expected level of service through its expected 20-yr lifetime. MnDOT
reviewed the analysis and now recommends we hold off on the project until a larger US 10 access study can
provide additional guidance to control along this corridor.
MnDOT and staff discussed initiating the US 10 corridor study from TH 101 in Elk River to Armstrong Blvd
in Ramsey and a cost participation plan. The cost participation plan would include up to a $200,000 in MnDOT
funding and up to $100,000 in city funding. Consistent with the draft amounts discussed on May 6, 2019. The
city will be the lead agency to ensure coordination with other city planning work (2020 Comprehensive Plan
update and strategic planning study).
The Elk River Vision
A welcoming community with revolutionary and spirited resourcefulness, exceptional
service, and community engagement that encourages and inspires prosperity
Staff advertised a Request for Proposals (RFP) for professional engineering services for the study on the
League of Minnesota Cities and the City of Elk River websites. We received two proposals ranging from
$280,606 to $576,625.
MnDOT and the city recommend awarding the work to SRF Consulting for an amount of $280,606. Upon the
approval by the Council staff will work with the firm to finalize a professional services contract, execute a
Master Partnership Contract with MnDOT and begin work on the study.
Financial Impact
The city’s funding will initially be cash flowed from the Pavement Management Fund and we will reimburse
those costs with a draw on our state aid account at the conclusion of the study when all study costs have been
paid and are finalized.

RE: Twin Lakes Road/ Kelley Parkway Traffic Memo
Mr. Femrite,
Thank you for providing the draft traffic memorandum regarding the Twin Lakes Road/Kelley Parkway frontage
road project abutting/intersecting US HWY 10 (SP 7101-66).
We have reviewed the findings and based upon the information provided we agree that suspending the project
development on this project is warranted at this time until more information is known. One thing we do
understand from this project development thus far is adding a signalized intersection at this new frontage road
intersection would not be in the best interest of the US 10 corridor. Additional Information will come out of the
US 10 Corridor and Subarea Study. The City of Elk River, Sherburne County, MnDOT, and other stakeholders can
formulate one vision for the near-, mid-, and long-term uses. This way we can efficiently can deliver a project(s)
that will build towards the long term goal.
Currently the Federal State Aid funding of $2,000,000 and Local Partnership Program funding of $1,000,000 is
aligned for FY 2023. There are many variables to contribute to the uncertainty of what and when a project can
be built on or adjoining US 10 in this area. Most likely construction will not align with FY 2023 funding. At this
point we will keep this funding targeted at this year for this project knowing it will likely move for FY 2024 or FY
2025 in the future. During this next year or so of the corridor study we should be able to better gauge a possible
proposed project, construction year, and other leveraged dollars if needed to build a proposed project.
We look forward to working with you to create a vision of US 10 from the Anoka/Sherburne County boarder to
US 101/169 interchange.
Sincerely,
Kelvin Howieson

THIS ENTIRE SCOPE OF WORK FALLS UNDER SOURCE TYPE 1150
PROJECT BACKGROUND
The Local Government/Agency is requesting consultant assistance in conducting a transportation planning study for a 3.5-
mile segment of Trunk Highway (TH) 10. This segment runs from the Anoka/Sherburne County border (just south of Jarvis
Street) to TH 101/169. Further, this transportation study includes review of the local transportation system in a 13.5 square
mile area surrounding the TH 10 corridor.
The study will include an in-depth review of current operations, land use, and local roadway connectivity along the TH 10
corridor, along with broader transportation system needs on supporting roadways and intersections. The purpose of the
study is to address safety, mobility, and operational issues to maintain the functionality of TH 10, while also addressing and
improving local transportation system connectivity and accessibility within Elk River and its neighbor Ramsey, to the east. A
corridor improvement plan as a full freeway facility will advance the opportunity for additional economic development in
the area. The land use planning included as part of the study will help to review options for this to occur in coordination with
the local stakeholders and landowners.
While State has jurisdiction over TH 10, the Local Government/Agency has a significant stake in the outcome of how it
operates today and into the future. TH 10 serves the immediate Elk River community and beyond, and the roadway network
that connects to it needs to work in unison to provide accessibility to various land uses in the community. State’s District 3
will be involved in the study, but State’s Metro District TH 10 up to the TH 101/169 interchange area and will be a significant
contributor to the study process. Sherburne County will also be a key stakeholder to include in the study process,
coordinating county facilities and plans.
Due to the importance of this route and the level of volume, State has this facility classified as a 1AF access facility, which
means its long-term goal is best suited as a controlled-access, freeway type facility. There have been numerous studies and
planning projects over the past ten-plus years that have moved forward a full freeway concept on either side of this study
area. Given the potential for growth and development in this area, there is urgency to develop a plan for this segment of TH
10. As part of this plan, existing access and adjacent land uses need to be accommodated and/or planned for. There are 25-
plus current access along this segment of TH 10. A key study outcome of this effort is identification of access alternative(s)
that plan for vibrant land use development in the area to ensure businesses and potential residential development can
thrive with safe connections to, from, and across TH 10. The City of Elk River has been planning for modification through this
area with the Twin Lakes Road extension project, Yale Street frontage road design, 171st Avenue Focus Area Study, and the
like which will help inform this work.
It is well understood that a full freeway transition will take time and that a detailed, well-coordinated implementation plan is
extremely important to outlining how best to work toward the long-term vision. Short- and mid-term improvements can be
implemented to help manage traffic growth, provide safe accessibility to the roadway, and encourage well-coordinated land
use development along the corridor. This is critical at intersections like Alpine Drive, Jarvis Street, Kelley Farms Road, 165th
Avenue, and 171st Avenue.
The study will include an in-depth review of current operations, land use, and local roadway connectivity along the TH 10
corridor, along with broader transportation system needs on supporting roadways and intersections. The purpose of the
study is to address safety, mobility, and operational issues to maintain the functionality of TH 10, while also addressing and
improving local transportation system connectivity and accessibility within Elk River and its neighbor Ramsey to the east. A
corridor improvement plan as a full freeway facility will advance the opportunity for additional economic development in
the area. The land use planning included as part of the study will help to review options for this to occur in coordination with
the local stakeholders and landowners.
At the conclusion of this transportation planning study, the Local Government/Agency, and its State Partners will have the
implementation plan it needs to set the framework for future development and transportation system improvements for
the next 20-plus years.

PROJECT APPROACH
The Local Government/Agency will hire SRF Consulting Group, Inc. (SRF), along with Sambatek, Inc., to perform the tasks
under this contract, described further below. This team will be referred to as the “consultant” within this scope of work.
The following project approach is centered on building a collaborative effort where the consultant team works closely with
the study partners to coordinate planning efforts and identify short-, mid-, and long-term solutions. The corridor and
subarea improvements will balance the regional transportation needs with the local needs of the surrounding communities.
The consultant team takes pride in being inclusive – we will ensure that the varying voices of the community are heard,
listened to, and addressed at key points in the process.
The process diagram presented below outlines a three-phase approach to this project. Phase I is a data driven set of
activities to define the issues and problems. Phase II defines an appropriate range of solutions and tests these solutions with
a variety of tools. Phase III culminates in a preferred local corridor plan and implementation strategy. Integrated within this
approach is comprehensive agency and stakeholder engagement that will build understanding and consensus.
Throughout this process, the consultant team will collaborate with representatives from the City of Ramsey, Anoka and
Sherburne counties, and State’s Metro and District 3. The consultant team understands the importance of communication in
this process and will proactively develop a community engagement plan and work with stakeholders to adjust the
plan/activities when needed to address special issues as they arise.
Study Activities, Deliverables, and Milestones Summary
Following is a summary of the key activities, deliverables, and milestones over the timeframe of the study. It aligns with the
three-phase approach previously mentioned/presented, including project management and the
stakeholder/agency/community coordination that is being proposed. The project schedule, from project initiation to final
completion, is also provided in more detail later in this scope of work; it is organized with more time-based detail and aligns
well with this summary.

PROJECT TASKS
TASK 1 – PROJECT MANAGEMENT
The consultant team will manage the project in accordance with all provisions in the Local Government/Agencies Request
for Proposals. The consultant team will work closely with the Local Government/Agency to administer and coordinate tasks
and meetings, review budgets and billings, monitor task milestones and the project schedule, and consult on monthly
progress reports to ensure all tasks are completed on time, within budget, and in accordance with project expectations. The
consultant team will use several forms of communication, including phone calls, e-mail, web-conferences, and face-to-face
meetings with the stakeholders (as necessary).
It is understood that a project management team (PMT) will be utilized for the study to coordinate amongst key agency
stakeholders (Cities of Elk River and Ramsey, Anoka and Sherburne counties, and State’s Metro and District 3) to guide and
direct the study process. PMT meetings will be held monthly from study initiation (May 2020) through December 2021 (up
to 20 meetings based on proposed schedule). The consultant team will work with the PMT in the first two to three meetings
to plan schedules and public engagement efforts. This will allow us to adjust and refine our approach as needed. In addition,
we will prepare timely agendas and minutes from meetings, within one week of each and document all key decisions and
action items.
Beyond the PMT, the consultant team will develop a Technical Advisory Board (TAB), with assistance from the PMT and Local
Government/Agency Leaders, which includes elected officials and select local business owners with some PMT member
participation. The TAB will meet quarterly through to study completion with up to six meetings. The TAB will be used to
screen information before broader public consumption and affirm study direction.
TASK 2 – STAKEHOLDER / AGENCY INVOLVEMENT
The consultant team is well versed in multi-jurisdictional projects that have different stakeholders with varied
responsibilities and points of view. It is understood and common for there to be conflicting opinions that need to be
resolved. The consultant team’s approach is to provide an atmosphere that is constructive and seeks to achieve bigger-
picture goals and objectives. Maintaining an emphasis on these goals brings focus to the work and decision-making.
Coordination, direct presentations, and input will be necessary with agencies and interested stakeholders within the study
area and along the corridor – Sherburne County, State, cultural resource agencies, freight haulers (i.e., Morrell Transfer and
Lefebvre Transportation), chambers of commerce, and city commissions and boards. The purpose of these meetings will be
to coordinate and gather input on pertinent study information beyond the PMT and TAB meetings. The consultant team also
believes that more direct input will be needed on an ongoing basis with businesses and property owners along TH 10 that
will be impacted by potential access changes. The consultant team has identified a strategy for this to ensure an
understanding of issues, opportunities, and challenges as well as rationale for decisions. The consultant team has identified
general timeframes for the development of technical information, the sharing of this information with key groups and
decision makers, and a process for making key decisions related to the concept plans and implementation strategy. Details
of this involvement has been outlined in the respective tasks that follow. However, a simplified outline of how many
meetings the consultant team is prepared to accommodate is as follows:
1. Sherburne County (1 meeting)
2. State (6 meetings)
3. City of Elk River Planning Commission (1 meeting)
4. City of Elk River City Council (2 meetings)
5. Minnesota Historical Society (2 meetings)
6. Elk River and Ramsey Area Chamber of Commerce (4 meetings)
7. Freight Haulers (2 meetings)
The purpose and outcome of each of these meetings will be discussed with the Local Government/Agency and State as part
of the kick-off meeting and community (and agency) engagement plan development. If it is determined at that time that the
project approach should change, the consultant team is prepared to pivot and allocate resources to other activities that
benefit the study. All meeting coordination, presentation materials, and documentation of meeting outcomes will be
documented by the consultant team staff for review, refinement, and agreement by the Local Government/Agency and
MnDOT Contract No. 1028386 Work Order No. 1

State Project Managers.
TASK 3 – COMMUNITY ENGAGEMENT
The consultant team has recent relevant experience in communities like those surrounding the TH 10 corridor and brings
additional skills and unique experience facilitating challenging, but ultimately successful community engagement efforts. The
project approach includes expanded engagement activities. The consultant team has woven the identified minimum
engagement items into their community engagement approach. This will result in an increased level of engagement and
input, and the consultant team will utilize several innovations to increase stakeholder engagement and their level of
understanding as part of this study.
The consultant team, including dedicated public engagement experts, will guarantee community concerns and ideas are
being listened to, addressed, and incorporated as part of this study. The consultant team will do this by being responsive to
community needs and providing clear and simple communication via a range of channels. The community engagement
process is designed to be meaningful, inclusive, and tailored specifically to this study area and corridor. The consultant team
has an extensive toolbox of strategies, techniques, and methods for engaging the public, businesses, and community leaders
utilizing face-to-face, digital, and other outreach options.
Community Engagement Plan Document
It is understood that the consultant team will work with the Local Government/Agency and State project and
communications managers to develop a Community Engagement Plan (CEP). Outlining engagement with this plan will be
instrumental in guiding community engagement efforts. The plan will create a framework around outreach strategies and
activities by identifying the engagement activity and its format, purpose and timeline; the targeted audience; intended
outcome; and materials needed prior to and during the activity. The CEP will also include a list of primary stakeholders and
media outlets to ensure public announcements and promotion of upcoming engagement opportunities are disseminated to
the appropriate local and regional contacts. The CEP will act as a living document and be refined based on input from the
Local Government/Agency, State, and other partners. The initial thought regarding content for the community engagement
plan is provided below in further detail.
Community Open House Meetings
The consultant team will prepare for and facilitate up to three open houses, one at the beginning, mid-point, and end of the
study. The first open house will introduce the study, its purpose, and preliminary existing conditions as well as ask
stakeholders and the public to identify/confirm issues, needs, and areas of opportunity in the corridor and subarea. The
second open house will consist of reviewing and asking for input on the draft corridor and subarea concepts. The third and
final open house will consist of presenting the final corridor alternative concept and implementation plan.
As a means of gathering input and making the series of open houses more interactive, the consultant team will use a live
audience flash poll. Attendees can respond to questions anonymously using their mobile devices or tablet devices available
during the meeting. Feedback can then be instantly shared with those present and compiled for later use to understand
public opinion and desire for improvements. This method enables everyone’s voice to be heard, not just a select few.
Comment cards will also be available for anyone preferring to provide a written comment. It is recommended that any
presentation made at the open house be recorded and posted on the study website and social media outlets. This provides
an additional opportunity for those that were unable to attend to still learn about the study and its potential impacts. The
consultant team will implement interactive tools at our public meetings: 3D animations of concepts from VISSIM and
ConceptStation/Infraworks, live audience feedback via anonymous polling, Facebook Live streaming (if desired by the Local
Government/Agency and/or State), and dot voting exercises.
The consultant team will be responsible for developing all informational displays, handouts, and presentations for each
meeting to aid in facilitating educational conversations with the public. A meeting summary, including a list of attendees and
comments received (both verbal and written) will be distributed electronically within one week of each open house. The
consultant team will coordinate with the Local Government/Agency, State, and study partners to promote the open house
through local channels, social media, email blasts, and portable message signs (if available from State).

Virtual Open Houses
The consultant team understands and values the importance of offering opportunities that mirror in-person engagement.
The consultant team has proposed hosting virtual open houses that can be shared to a study website, social media channels,
or additional platforms in conjunction with the in-person event, or shortly thereafter. Each virtual open house will visually
walk the user through the various elements of the meeting. Additionally, these meetings can be made available on local
cable access television or a project partner’s YouTube channel. The consultant team will prepare all materials necessary and
coordinate the provision of this virtual open house.
Focus Group Meetings
Transitioning the TH 10 corridor to a full freeway facility will require careful attention to the accessibility of the adjacent land
use and businesses that exist today. Therefore, the consultant team will host focus group meetings with key stakeholders
along the corridor to engage them in the process of determining viable options for access modification/consolidation and
adjacent roadway network improvements. The Local Government/Agency has already done a good job with this
conversation and coordinating with property owners as part of other activities related to the Twin Lake Road and Yale Street
improvements. Providing these smaller group meetings in conjunction with the open houses will ensure adjacent property
owners have multiple opportunities to share their input and participate in the process. Each focus group serves as an
opportunity to dive deeper into freight, school, neighborhood, or other business issues in relation to the TH 10 corridor, gain
useful information, and build strong relationships. Spending additional time listening to their concerns, identifying their
priorities, and strategizing ways to develop a workable solution will help in addressing potential concerns at the onset of the
study. The consultant team feels this will help mitigate future issues, demonstrate that the study team values the
community’s perspective, and ensures the public has multiple chances to participate in the decision-making process. The
consultant team has accounted for up to four focus group meetings in two separate time periods (coordinated with the first
and second open houses). It is anticipated this would account for two distinct groups meeting twice.
Online Engagement and Survey
The consultant team recognizes the need to offer varied, interactive, and personal community engagement opportunities in
conjunction with the traditional outreach methods to gain input that is representative of all stakeholders and the general
public. The consultant team will implement online engagement to help dissolve any perceived barriers to attending an in-
person event. The consultant team has accounted for the development of a branded website to promote the TH 10 Corridor
and Subarea Study and provide meeting materials and other documents/materials produced for this study.
The consultant team will also deploy an online Wikimap that will enable easy two-way information sharing within the
defined study area context. A wikimap offers residents an opportunity to provide detailed information about specific
locations, respond to other public comments and interact with project partners through an online platform. Another useful
tool that the consultant team has in its toolbox of engagement is Story Maps; StoryMaps are user friendly tools that are very
graphical providing the public an opportunity to receive and share information visually with the study team. We are
prepared to use either or both tools for this effort.
Further, the consultant team will distribute two online surveys during the study process (beyond the Wikimap/Story Map
tools) to enhance outreach efforts for gathering input on corridor needs, opportunities, and barriers. General community
surveys help establish current perceptions and provide insight for guiding future improvements. The use of an online survey
is a much more cost-effective way to gather input than widely cast mail or telephone surveys. A properly notified survey
facilitated online could capture a large portion of community members and general commuters traveling the TH 10 corridor.
The consultant’s Public Engagement Team takes pride in designing and facilitating public surveys that are convenient,
accessible and results driven. Visually rich surveys can help to educate the community and gather public feedback that is
detailed and actionable. The consultant team uses multiple survey platforms that are easily tailored to meet the needs of a
project (ESRI Survey 1-2-3, SurveyMonkey, MetroQuest, etc.). The consultant team’s tools provide the latitude to get the
appropriate level of feedback for our projects. The development, facilitation, and review of up to two online surveys is
included with our scope outline.

Targeted Social Media
The consultant team is adept at creating social media messaging and ad campaigns that increase the visibility of projects and
can be targeted to specific audiences based on zip codes, demographics, and other appropriate categories. The consultant
team can track and analyze social media analytics to ensure effectiveness throughout each project’s efforts. Social media ad
campaigns are a cost-effective means of sharing information and promoting engagement opportunities. This tactic will be
applied on this study as well to increase engagement and get at the core users of TH 10.
TASK 4 – DATA ASSEMBLY AND ACQUISITION
The consultant team will collect, assemble, and organize available data from the Local Government/Agency, State, and other
study partners. The data will be used to develop a base map depicting all existing conditions and will be used to conduct the
study analysis and concept alternative development/refinements. This base mapping exercise will need to consider the
length of the overall corridor and the subarea context that will be needed to tend to respective issues appropriately. As a
minimum, the following will be collected:
1. Digital base maps and parcel data
2. Zoning, land use, and comprehensive growth plans
3. Infrastructure data and soil/drainage conditions
4. Local Transportation Plans
5. Visual observations of access locations
6. Existing geotechnical information – soils classification
7. Burlington Northern Santa Fe (BNSF) operational information
8. State access management classifications
9. Most recent Annual Average Daily Traffic (AADT) data for the local and regional systems
10. Readily available intersection turning movement counts from recent studies in the area (i.e., 169 Redefine and Kelley
Parkway/Twin Lakes Road project)
11. Crash data for the most recent five-year period for which data is available
12. Bicycle and Pedestrian Master Plans
13. Transit route data for adjacent roadways
14. Traffic signal timing data, where necessary
15. Roadway construction history
16. Floodplain elevations and contour maps
17. Sherburne and Anoka County lidar data
18. Right of way, typical section data
19. Major utilities (utility facilities that one might want to avoid)
20. Intersection lighting information
This information will be presented to the study stakeholders, which will guide the development of the project goals,
concepts, and facilitate the community engagement process.
TASK 5 – CORRIDOR VISION AND GOALS
One of the key objectives of the study is to define a unified corridor vision that supports current and future land uses within
the area as well as provides for user safety, mobility and community connectivity. The consultant team will assist the
stakeholders in developing a compelling and commonly embraced corridor vision that will function and perform into the
future. The consultant team envisions this as a set of stated goals, a visual plan/map showing locations for key
transportation facilities and a unified plan for modifications of access along TH 10. In addition, this vision will include refined
concepts for land use that the Local Government/Agency can take forward into their comprehensive plan update. This vision
will need to be developed or work toward over time. As such, interim measures or improvements will be strategized in an
implementation section. Access for the area businesses and residences will be a big issue. Defining goals that must be
achieved with the concept alternatives will help guide design considerations and the final vision.

TASK 6 – CORRIDOR AND SUBAREA ISSUES IDENTIFICATION AND CONFIRMATION
Developing a solid understanding of the issues, constraints, and opportunities of the corridor and subarea is critical to
successful execution of this study, requiring comprehensive data collection, thorough technical analysis, and in-depth
discussions with stakeholders. This task will focus on collecting, assembling, and analyzing a large amount of pertinent data
for the corridor/subarea to identify problems and issues to be addressed. This task is not limited to the collection of existing
issues but will also apply dynamic analytical tools to forecast future conditions under various transportation conditions.
While TH 10 serves certain transportation functions, analysis of its relationship to local land use and growth patterns and the
potential impacts improvements may have on the environmental and cultural resources in the area must all be thoroughly
understood. Each of the subsections that follow are responsive to many of the general work tasks described in the Local
Government/Agency’s RFP.
A substantive existing and anticipated corridor conditions technical memorandum will be produced following completion of
the tasks outlined in this section. This document will serve as the springboard to concept development and working with
stakeholders and agency partners to identify distinct issue areas and potential solutions to address the issues.
Demographics
The role of the TH 10 corridor is expected to change somewhat with the other area transportation system improvements
that are underway with interchanges being built along TH 169 to the north and TH 10 to the south of the study segment. The
anticipated changes are potential travel pattern shifts and increase land use growth in this immediate area (“development is
coming”). In order to understand how the corridor is expected to change, it is essential to identify past development trends
and use predictive documents, such as the 171st Avenue FAST, the City of Elk River Comprehensive Plan, and other local
planning documents to gauge future trends. The consultant team will coordinate with the study partners to summarize past
and predicted development trends in order to inform future conditions (i.e., population, housing, and employment
changes).
Land Use
Understanding how the land use adjacent to the corridor and throughout the study area will change is directly tied to the
171st Avenue FAST and City Comprehensive Plan, and it’s understood the Comprehensive Plan will be begin its update in
2020. There needs to be coordination between the Comprehensive Plan update and the work associated with this project
and the Twin Lakes Road corridor study work that is ongoing to ensure cohesion amongst the assumptions in this area. The
development assumptions used to project future traffic conditions will influence concept alternatives later in the study
process. Current and future land uses in the area will be identified with guidance from these previous local plans and
discussions with property owners in the area. Transit-supportive development is anticipated near the Northstar Elk River
Station; however, discussions with area property owners is necessary to understand how land use may change. There are
some large lots/parcels adjacent to the corridor, this could provide more flexibility in terms of providing connectivity, access
and land use options. Geographic Information System (GIS) plat maps and property information will be gathered where
necessary to identify parcel ownership. This data can be utilized to better understand impact areas and affected
stakeholders during concept development as well.
Up to two land use scenarios will be developed as part of this activity with a map summarizing existing and future land uses
as the final deliverable. This map will also provide context for local roadway connectivity and accessibility needs (revisited
later in our scope outline).
Multimodal Trails, Pathways, and Pedestrian/Bicycle Crossings
The TH 10 corridor lacks pedestrian and bicycle infrastructure today and for the most part there is not a significant land use
draw along the corridor attracting this mode. However, the intersection at 171st Street has the potential to attract some
multimodal activity with the residences that are along the Mississippi River to the west. Future consideration of potential
trail/sidewalk facilities in the area is necessary to support changing land uses/growth and providing access to the NorthStar
Train Station at Twin Lakes Road/171st Avenue. Also, with the ongoing advancement of electric technology with bicycles,
scooters etc., that increase local trip making abilities, this element needs to be thought through and incorporated into the
overall vision. Based on review of past planning work, it is anticipated trail/sidewalk accommodations will be provided south
of TH 10 along future frontage/backage roads (as shown in the Sherburne County Transportation Plan and the Yale
Street/171st Avenue Feasibility and design work). The consultant team will review mapping of existing and planned trails
MnDOT Contract No. 1028386 Work Order No. 1
Exhibit B

9
within and adjacent to the corridor study area. The consultant team will identify potential connections to the TH 10 corridor
from existing trails and to existing park facilities in the area, including the youth athletic complex on 165th Avenue. Issues
that will be considered when identifying gaps will include pedestrian and bicycle destinations.
The consultant team will develop a map that depicts existing and planned trails, along with proposed new trail connections
and potential crossing locations (including potential grade separated crossings for consideration as part of the alternative
analysis; either incorporated into interchange designs or standalone structures, if appropriate).
Freight, Rail, and Transit
The freight, rail, and transit considerations in the TH 10 corridor extent and the subarea is something that must be well
understood to know how it impacts the TH 10 corridor needs and general north-south route connectivity as both TH 10 and
BNSF corridors limit this connectivity. TH 10 serves about 1,400 daily heavy commercial trucks per day through this study
segment, which equates to about four percent. Not a significantly large percentage but a fairly large number that will impact
operational conditions. In addition, there is a considerable set of land uses/ businesses adjacent to the corridor in this area
that rely on accessibility to TH 10 and the broader transportation network for business (those off of 171st Avenue/170th
Lane/Future Twin Lakes Road). In the grand scheme of freight management, TH 10 is classified as a Tier 2 freight corridor
that should provide accessibility to freight clusters and regional freight terminals.
The BNSF Railway runs parallel to TH 10 on the east. The good news is the rail line is separated from TH 10 by approximately
a quarter mile in its closest spot. This distance helps to minimize rail operations from negatively affecting TH 10 operations
(blocked crossings). There are approximately 55-80 BNSF freight trains per day on this line that run at speeds up to 79 mph.
With the average freight train two and one-half miles long, it is still important to understand how often they will impact the
crossings in the area and if they will have a sporadic impact on TH 10. Further, this line also accommodates the Northstar
passenger commuter rail operations with up to 12 commuter trains per day (six in each direction). Northstar trains also run
for special events, carrying passengers to Twins and Vikings games. This rail corridor is very active and useful to the region, it
also runs up to two Amtrak trains per day (one in each direction). The SRF Team will account for these activities in our
consideration of transportation solutions for the TH 10 corridor and broader transportation subarea intersections.
Northstar trains were mentioned in the previous discussion as a means of transit for passenger traffic. Northstar is operated
by Metro Transit. Metro Transit does not operate bus service in this area. Bus transit service is provided by Tri-Cap Transit
Connection. While there are not dedicated stops on this corridor, transit opportunities should be considered if/when
development changes with connections needed to the Elk River Northstar station area with bus transit transfers.
Safety
Corridor safety will be evaluated by reviewing the number and severity of crashes that have occurred in the last five years at
key intersections and corridor segments – not only on TH 10 but also in other areas of the subarea identified in the RFP. Data
will be obtained from the Minnesota Crash Mapping Analysis Tool (MnCMAT) as well as county and state records on file for
the years from 2016-2018 to identify specific crash information (i.e., time of day, month, lighting, surface condition, and
type of crashes). Crash diagrams will be developed at key intersections. The average and critical crash rate will be calculated
and compared to rates for similar intersections. Locations with higher than expected rates will be reviewed to determine if
there are any physical constraints or design issues that may be leading to the higher rates. Potential solutions will be
developed and prioritized for these locations in the broader subarea taking into consideration recommendations from
previous studies, if any. For locations that include a pedestrian or bicycle crash, a detailed review of the incident will be
conducted to determine if there are design improvements that should be considered immediately.
A summary describing the overall conditions along the corridor, and by segment, outlining the results of the safety
evaluation will be completed and incorporated into the Existing Conditions technical memorandum. The summary will
include a more in-depth review of the corridor segments and intersections and will use mapping and crash diagrams to help
convey the number, type, and severity of crashes occurring along the corridor.

For future condition considerations the consultant team will apply their experience with the Interactive Highway Safety
Design Manual suite of tools. Using the Federal Highway Administration’s (FHWA) Crash Prediction Model of the Interactive
Highway Safety Design Model (IHSDM), the consultant team will develop a predictive safety model for TH 10 within the
study area. If the roadway geometric data needed for this analysis is not readily available from State or past studies, the
consultant team will collect the data using Google Earth and verify with Local Government/Agency and State staff. The focus
of the future safety evaluation will be to identify locations of potential safety concern and understand how the existing
roadway geometrics impact safety performance. The consultant team will use information from the base year and 2045
conditions with forecasts as inputs into the IHSDM safety model. Quantitative results of the crash prediction will help
identify safety needs along the corridor and incorporate safety into the evaluation.
Access Plan
Given State’s access classification (1AF – transition to a freeway), along with operational and safety concerns, it is
anticipated that one of the key focuses will be transitioning TH 10 to a full freeway facility. Planning for access is one of the
most critical aspects of this study. The businesses along the corridor have a heavy stake in access to TH 10. As such, it will be
paramount to understand how their business needs to be supported as well as issues that these accesses cause. Under
future conditions, these access and safety challenges are likely to increase. The consultant team will put a significant effort
into understanding access needs currently and into the future and develop concepts that provide consistent, safe access as
well as good circulation patterns to land use.
The consultant team has developed an access evaluation process that provides a framework for developing a consistent
access strategy along a corridor and for a way to implement access strategies over time as development occurs – this
process has proven tremendously effective in a number of other corridor studies we have worked on. A comprehensive
access inventory will be developed as part of the evaluation and summarized in tabular and graphical form. This includes
identifying access location, access configuration (i.e., full, tee, right-in/right-out), type of access (public or private), access
control measures, type of usage (truck or auto), cross-street function, and presence of turn lanes.
The consultant team will then define the desirable access spacing based upon State’s access management guidelines,
corridor vision and goals, safety implications, current roadway network and context with other major facilities (i.e., ability to
connect and facilitate movements regionally and/ or inter-city). The consultant team will also look at past access decisions
including current access agreements that may be in place with area businesses or property owners. The consultant team will
identify this as the preferred “access template” or access goal. The preferred access template will then be overlaid onto the
current accesses (i.e., base conditions) to identify inconsistencies with the access spacing objectives. Each inconsistency will
be enumerated by type (i.e., public, private commercial, private residential, or private agriculture) and classified by
replacement difficulty levels. Access consolidation and/ or removal levels range from 1 (easiest to accomplish – has
alternative access to public street) to 3 (most difficult – generally requires purchase of access rights and/or redevelopment).
These inconsistencies will then be evaluated in detail to determine the alternative design solutions, potential impacts, and
their costs to achieve the desired spacing.
The final deliverable from this activity will be a set of access modification recommendations that will be incorporated in to
the concept alternatives in short-, mid-, and long-term timeframes.

Connecting Roadways and Subarea Transportation Infrastructure
A variety of transportation and land use information will be gathered and analyzed to assess the current connectivity of
other roadways to TH 10. This information includes travelshed, future traffic generation, roadway connectivity,
improvements to TH 10, traffic volumes, access spacing, travel speeds, and adjacent land uses. In addition, the consultant
team will develop network options and an assessment of a multi-directional network of collector and local roads to serve
and integrate with the TH 10 corridor and the larger planning area. North-south connections are somewhat limited in the
area; this is well understood by area stakeholders as an issue that has been dealt with for some time. With the potential
changes to TH 10 (full freeway facility under long-term conditions), travel patterns are going to shift with impacts to the
connecting and supporting roadways. The options for consideration will be based on the travelshed, future traffic
generation, roadway connectivity, improvements to TH 10, traffic volumes, access spacing, travel speeds, and adjacent
land uses assessment.
ROW Identification
Task 4 mentioned collecting existing right of way data readily available from previous work in the area or adjacent to the
study corridor. The consultant team sees the intent of this task is to identify current Right of Way (ROW) boundaries so
that additional ROW needs can be identified for future concepts. This would provide needed information to the Local
Government/Agency that it could use to shape future development and platting work.
The consultant team will utilize State information, as well as work done previously through study activities that have
defined parcel boundaries near 171 st Avenue and the Yale Street frontage road connection to TH 10 on the south and
future Twin Lakes Road north of TH 10. Remaining parcels that require right of way definition will be coordinated with
State and property owners to determine easements and finalize the ROW base map. The final product for this activity will
be a right of way base map. The consultant team has included the requested right of way title work for this stage as an
optional task provided later herein.
Public and Private Utility Identification and Coordination
The consultant team will engage local utility companies to identify their key facilities within the corridor and investigate
impacts created by the proposed corridor improvements. For the most part there doesn’t appear to be any significant
above ground utilities within the corridor anticipated right of way. The consultant team has extensive experience with
utility company coordination and will make this a priority by tracking utility coordination on a critical path schedule. The
consultant team will coordinate with public and private utility owners to develop a detailed utility base map based on
readily available electronic mapping data. A detailed base map will aid in determining utility driven conflicts with the
proposed alternatives developed later in the process. Costs associated with utility relocations will be included in the
project cost estimates to ensure adequate funds are budgeted for construction and risks are understood early in the
process.
Social, Economic, and Environmental (SEE) Scan
The consultant team has recommended conducting environmental background research in lieu of the Phase I
Environmental Site Assessment (ESA) that would include a review of historical aerial photography and a search of the
Minnesota Pollution Control Agency (MPCA) online “what’s in my neighborhood” database. A critical review of
environmental and cultural issues and constraints is necessary in coordination with the concept development process,
but at this time we feel it is most efficient and appropriate to do so with an appropriately scaled SEE scan of the area. The
consultant team will focus on understanding key “location defining” resources that require avoidance and minimization
measures under state and federal environmental regulations, including:
1. Wetlands, public waters, and other water resources
2. Parks, trails, and other recreational resources
3. Protected species, wildlife habitat and other natural resources
4. Floodplains
MnDOT Contract No. 1028386 Work Order No. 1
Exhibit B

12
5. Previously surveyed historic and archaeological resources
6. Farmland
The consultant team will contact key environmental review agencies in accordance with state protocol to assess potential
impacts relative to the preliminary environmental scan data (Early Coordination Letters). Proactive avoidance of these
types of resources must be considered when evaluating various alternatives. Substantive SEE analyses will be conducted
as part of this environmental screening, including enough inventory and assessment work to determine which impacts
may be potentially significant in examining alternative concepts to move forward for preliminary design and corridor
preservation in the future.
The consultant team will assemble all relevant SEE information and display this data on the Study’s GIS base map. The
base map will graphically depict the potential environmental issues and constraints, as well as other critical factors that
need to be considered in identifying concept alternatives. Additional information generated by agency and public input
will also be added to the base map during the study process.
All environmental screening will be conducted to conform with state and federal rules and guidelines in order to qualify
future corridor improvements for potential state and federal funding. A proactive approach to the identification of
environmental and cultural issues within the TH 10 corridor will help to shape, define, and compare the feasibility of the
concept alternatives. The consultant team will incorporate the findings from this analysis into an overall Existing
Conditions technical memorandum documenting all the Existing Conditions data collected and analyzed in Tasks 7 and 8.
Traffic Analysis
Existing Conditions
The consultant team will complete an evaluation of the existing traffic conditions to identify:
1. Current traffic volumes for all modes of traffic
2. Origin-destination of vehicles within the study area
3. Roadways and intersections with sub-standard geometric design
Traffic Volume Data Collection
The consultant team will work closely with the Local Government/Agency and State to develop a data collection plan for
turning movement counts at required locations where current data is not available. Based on the Local
Government/Agency’s RFP, the consultants understanding of the study, and previous work completed in the area, peak
period turning movement counts will be collected at the following intersections:
1. Alpine Drive and US 10
2. Jarvis Street and US 10
3. 165
th Avenue and US 10
4. Future Twin Lakes Road/ Kelley Parkway and US 10

The consultant team will collect this data using video cameras which will allow them to process exactly what we need for
the scope of the study. If desired, 24-hour counts could be processed at any of the locations; however, it is anticipated
that only a.m., mid-day, and p.m. peak hour counts are necessary for completion of this study. These counts will be
processed to capture passenger vehicles, freight vehicles, pedestrians, and bicycles.
Upon completion of the data collection task, a thorough evaluation of existing and future year no build conditions will be
completed. The evaluation will include a field assessment, safety analysis (future condition), gap analysis, traffic
operations analysis, origin-destination analysis, and a review of existing Intelligent Transportation System (ITS)
infrastructure. The analysis methodology and assumptions will be shared with the Local Government/Agency and State
prior to the start of the analysis.
Field Assessment
The consultant team will conduct a field assessment during the morning, noon, and evening peak periods on a typical
weekday. During the assessment, the consultant team will observe and document traffic operations including
intersection delay and queuing. In addition, the consultant will also identify sight distance issues and observe driver
behaviors including the current levels of gap acceptance at side-street stop locations. These types of observations can
only be made in the field and cannot be learned from traditional traffic data collection practices. These observations will
play a critical role in the calibration of the existing model and identifying the appropriate improvements for the corridor.
Corridor and Subarea Origin-Destination Assessment
The consultant team will collect origin-destination (O-D) information from StreetLight Data (www.streetlightdata.com),
through State’s access to the service. By using Global Positioning System (GPS) O-D data, the consultant team can answer
many questions that a traditional license plate or survey study cannot. This big data can be used to evaluate a larger area,
help identify which route specific origin-destination combinations are used and evaluate trip attributes and patterns.
Using StreetLight data, we will create an origin-destination matrix and graphical representations of existing travel
patterns that use the TH 10 corridor. This data will account for the distribution of local trips that have a trip end in Elk
River and Ramsey amongst other trips using the regional system. This will help to understand how TH 10 interacts with
the adjacent, connecting roadway system to service the area.
The consultant team will work with State and Local Government/Agency staff to select a time period that represents a
typical operation of TH 10, one that doesn’t account for traffic diversions due to a project on TH 10 or an adjacent
corridor. This data will allow us to answer some critical questions:
1. Who is using the TH 10 corridor (regional vs. local trips)?
2. Do these patterns vary by time of day?
3. Do these patterns vary by weekday vs weekend?
4. Do these patterns vary by vehicle type (freight vs. passenger vehicles)?
Operations Analysis
The consultant team will use VISSIM software to conduct the traffic operations analysis for the study area. VISSIM is a
microsimulation traffic operations model that can model high-speed corridors and local arterial networks. By using a
consistent model, the consultant team can produce results that capture overall system traffic operations (Vehicle Miles
Traveled [VMT]/Vehicle Hours Traveled [VHT]) instead of using two separate models to evaluate the local and regional
system. In addition, VISSIM is capable of producing quality animations that will be used to facilitate project stakeholder
meetings and convey technical information to the public in an easy to understand visualization. Another advantage of
VISSIM is its ability to analyze unique at-grade and grade separated alternatives that may be developed through the
project. Some of these unique designs may include roundabouts and Reduced Conflict Intersections (RCI). The existing
conditions model will account for the following key existing intersections:
1. Alpine Drive and TH 10
2. Jarvis Street and TH 10

st Avenue)
9. Sherburne CSAH 12 (181
st Avenue) and Twin Lakes Road/CSAH 13
Results of the analysis will identify level of service, delay, and queuing information for each intersection. As the TH 10
corridor continues to transition to a grade-separated freeway type facility, it will become more difficult for motorists to
access TH 10 from unsignalized at-grade intersections. To address this issue, we will complete a gap analysis for each
side-street stop intersection using information from the site observation along with the existing traffic volumes.
Traffic Forecasting
The consultant teams travel demand forecasters will produce forecasts needed to evaluate the TH 10 corridor. The
consultant team will build off forecasting efforts from the 169 Redefine and TH 10 Rum River projects and incorporate
any additional information that has been developed from the Twin Lakes Road/Kelley Parkway project.
The basis for the travel demand modeling will be the current Anoka County Travel Demand Model, which has detailed
local roadway network and land use detail in this area. The model will be reviewed for network accuracy and validated
prior to completing future year forecasts. A list of regional and significant local projects in the study area will be
developed for use in the no build condition. Improvements will be confirmed based on the State Transportation
Improvement Program (STIP), Highway Infrastructure Program (HIP), and local Capital Improvement Program (CIP).
Future year land use assumptions will be consistent with the 169 Redefine project. The network and land use
assumptions will be verified with the Local Government/Agency and State prior to developing forecasts.
Since the Travel Demand Model is based off year 2040 land use assumptions, year 2040 traffic forecasts will initially be
developed. Based off these 2040 forecasts and existing traffic volumes, the consultant team will work with the Local
Government/Agency to understand near and long-term development projections for the area. Using this information, the
consultant team will develop traffic forecasts for year 2025, 2035, and 2045. Forecasts will be checked against historical
rates using traffic data from the automatic traffic recorder (ATR) station 352 that is located along TH 10 at the truck
weigh station east of the Sherburne/ Anoka County line. The consultant team will specifically focus on the timing of the
planned freeway conversions of TH 10 and TH 169 in the area. These projects will likely influence travel volumes and
patterns more than the planned development in the area.
A Travel Demand Forecast Technical memo will document land use and roadway network assumptions, forecast
methodology, validation process, model adjustment and future year results. This draft memo will be reviewed and
approved by the City of Elk River and MnDOT staff before the traffic operations analysis proceed.
Future Year Traffic Analysis
Year 2025, 2035 and 2045 Operations Analysis
Year 2025, 2035, and 2045 conditions analysis will be performed again using VISSIM at each of the previous study
intersections to determine any future deficiencies that may require mitigation. This is considered a no build condition
assessment that will account for programmed improvements in the study area. Based on the results of the existing, year
2025, 2035, and 2045 analysis intersections or corridor segments that experience operational issues under existing and
future conditions will be identified and near-, mid-, and long-term improvements will be recommended.

Connecting Roadways and Subarea Transportation Infrastructure (Future Considerations)
The connecting roadways and subarea intersections where detailed turning movement data is collected will be reviewed
under future conditions as well to determine if significant changes are anticipated due to access modifications and travel
pattern shifts within the area. If it is determined that substantive travel pattern shifts will negatively affect these
intersections, appropriate system improvements or intersection geometric modifications will be recommended.
A technical memorandum will be prepared documenting the existing, year 2025, 2035, and year 2045 operations analysis,
traffic, and recommended intersection improvements. This document will provide all the needed information that an
Intersection Control Evaluation (ICE) needs, but since this is a planning study, ICE reports are not needed at this time.
TASK 7 – CORRIDOR ALTERNATIVES DEVELOPMENT, ANALYSIS AND SCREENING/ EVALUATION
Corridor Alternatives Development
Based upon the identified issues, safety and operational analysis, SEE analysis, stakeholder input, land use options and
overall corridor goals, we will develop a range of alternatives. The consultant team will take into account the upstream
and downstream corridor concepts and ensure that the range of solutions considered under this effort align with the
overall corridor goals and are consistent with driver expectations. At this point in the concept development process a
reasonable number of alternatives will be developed and reviewed. The consultant team will categorize the options in
four key categories, although we are open to discussion with the PMT on our strategy. These include:
1. No build – limited to no investment: “understand what issues occur if no investment is done”
2. Lower-cost (shorter term) solutions – modification of at-grade options (Rcuts, refined signalization, super street)
3. Moderate cost (mid-term) solutions – frontage and backage roads in combination with buttonhooks and overpasses
4. Higher cost (long-term) solutions – frontage and backage roads with full freeway type standards
In order to minimize effort and streamline the screening process, the preliminary multimodal corridor concept
alternatives will be screened prior to laying out full plan view layouts of the access alternatives and potential system
improvements. The preliminary access configurations and local transportation system concepts will be screened down to
two to three select multimodal corridor concept alternative layouts based on the corridor vision and identified issues.
These select concepts will prepared in ConceptStation/Infraworks, which provides preliminary construction limits and a
visualization of the concept. These visualizations can also be presented at various stakeholder and public meetings. From
ConceptStation/Infraworks, it is an efficient transition to preliminary engineering, modeling, and further development of
State’s Level 1 layout(s) for the select alternative. The consultant team will coordinate with State’s Metro Layout
Approval Committee (LAC) and Geometric design Support Unit (GDSU) to review these alternative layouts.
The consultant teams conceptual layouts will be prepared consistent with National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA)
guidelines (i.e., first seek to avoid, then minimize, then mitigate). In addition, order of magnitude cost estimates will be
prepared. Throughout this process, the consultant team will work with local planners and engineers to coordinate the
alignments with future land use plans and to identify access or traffic operational issues and development
opportunities/conflicts.
The concept layouts will document each alternatives relationship to existing roadways, wetlands, floodplains,
waterways/ditches, major utilities, buildings, and other known features. The layouts will identify horizontal alignments
(design speed, sight distance, and superelevation), vertical alignments (stopping sight distance on crest curves, drainage
issues on sag curves), typical cross sections, stormwater Best Management Practices (BMPs), utilities, and ROW width in
accordance with State specifications (see Major Design Considerations on page 18). These features represent the basic
factors that must be understood by the various stakeholders so they can ascertain right-of-way acquisition needs,
impacts to structures, and general effects on federal and state locational factors.

The consultant team will seek input on the conceptual layouts from resource agencies and compile these comments for
consideration by the PMT/TAB. A key element of the refined concepts will be identifying credible construction limits on
the drawings. Too often construction limits are not determined in enough detail until much later in final design;
identifying limits at this stage will help minimize surprises and call out potential impacts and cost risks. Other potential
considerations will include grading limits due to ponding needs (and noise walls) and their location.
Corridor Alternatives Analysis
Prior to developing concept alternatives, the consultant team will work with stakeholders to establish evaluation criteria
that incorporate the corridor vision, established goals, purpose and need information, and earlier public input on the
issues and needs. It is anticipated that environmental, social, and transportation performance factors, such as wetland
impacts, level-of-service, multimodal connectivity, access management, transit opportunities, enhanced pedestrian
crossings, safety, cost, etc., will be used to evaluate the concept alternatives.
Intersection operations will be evaluated for each alternative to ensure their conceptual designs accommodate future
traffic conditions. Furthermore, the alternatives will be analyzed against the evaluation criteria to determine how they
rank relative to each (i.e., access management, safety, pedestrian accommodations, etc.).
Corridor Alternatives Screening/Evaluation
The consultant team will compile impact assessment results using our innovative evaluation methodology. The evaluation
system documents impact assessment criteria, tests and ranks the relative merits of each concept, compares concepts to
each other and the no-build option, and documents the rationale for the locally preferred concept decision. The results of
the evaluation process will be presented in a matrix, which is organized so stakeholders can easily discern the relationship
between study goals and the measurable criteria used to evaluate concepts.
The measurement of impacts will involve grading by magnitude of impact. For some criteria, quantifiable data will be
available and included in the draft matrix, so the PMT/TAB can view results from the technical analyses. After discussion,
data will be generalized into a “good, fair, or poor” format or a similar scale for public review. While each alternative will
have different trade-offs with respect to the evaluation criteria, the matrices will help stakeholders review the analyses
and provide meaningful comments. If the matrices become too large or alternative impact tradeoffs are unclear for the
PMT/TAB, the consultant team will prepare a critical characteristics chart summarizing the most important alternative
ratings by transportation, social, environmental, and cost categories. Similarly, for public review, the consultant team will
further summarize findings with an advantage/ disadvantage chart, which helps the public quickly understand the relative
benefits/constraints of each alternative using color coding and format. The presentation of this analysis in simplified
graphics will enable stakeholders to quickly digest the relative merits of each alternative, so that they can offer
constructive comments, and identify their preferences.
The evaluation process, the evaluation matrices, and the draft ranking of concepts will be presented to the PMT/TAB for
comment and refinement before presenting to resource agencies and the public for comments.
Corridor Plan comparison matrix from Marshall TH 23 Corridor Study
The consultant team will work with the PMT/TAB to determine and document the “locally” preferred corridor concept.
The consultant team understands that any future use of federal funding will require additional NEPA environmental
documentation before an official preferred corridor alignment can be selected. Upon selection of the locally preferred
corridor concept, sketch level improvement options will be prepared for the key intersections along TH 10 and within the
subarea.

Costs
The consultant team will review preliminary planning-level construction and right of way cost estimates and refine them
for the locally preferred corridor plan. Construction cost estimates will be based on planning-level, cost-per-mile values
that are typical for similar roadways in the study area; costs for interchanges and significant intersection improvements
will be based on an engineer’s estimate of infrastructure needs for the improvement. ROW estimates will be based on
per parcel or acreage values or another methodology that is mutually agreed upon. These costs will be reviewed to
ensure that special elements are accounted for. These planning-level cost estimates are intended to help technical and
policy leaders make prudent and thoughtful investment decisions.
TASK 8 – IMPLEMENTATION PLAN AND DOCUMENTATION
Based on the select locally preferred corridor plan, the consultant team will recommend specific strategies to the
PMT/TAB to implement the proposed improvements on TH 10. One of the key aspects of implementing the TH 10
corridor improvement program is to find transitional improvements that can move forward with limited amounts of
funding and/or take advantage of funding sources that may be available. The consultant team will work with the
PMT/TAB to identify lower-cost/high-benefit improvements and logical sequencing or staging of these improvements. To
accomplish this, the consultant team will assist the PMT/TAB in identifying criteria that can be used to prioritize the
improvements and staging. As part of this staging analysis, possible criteria that could be used include:
1. Immediacy of need (i.e., capacity, safety, and/or condition)
2. Construction feasibility (what improvements are less costly and more easily constructed to build to the ultimate long-
term condition)
3. Ability to leverage other planned regional and/or local improvements
4. Ability to leverage planned private improvements (adjacent development opportunities)
5. Power to fund through federal funding applications or other funding mechanisms
6. Logical sequencing of segments to avoid the creation of down-stream bottlenecks and/or safety problems
The consultant team will outline recommendations for staging, implementation strategies related to policy areas,
potential funding strategies, and a specific TH 10 financial strategy for short- (year 2025), mid- (year 2035), and long-term
(year 2045) timeframes and documented in the Implementation Plan.
The consultant team will prepare a draft and final report to document the study process, assumptions and methodology,
analysis, findings, recommendations, and public involvement efforts. The technical memorandums produced throughout
the corridor study process will be synthesized into one seamless document at this stage. Specific elements that will be
incorporated into the draft and final reports include:
1. An executive summary (to be used as a stand-alone document)
2. Corridor vision and goals
3. Issues identification and confirmation
4. Alternative roadway and trail concept development, analysis, and evaluation
5. An integrated corridor plan and set of subarea improvements necessary to accommodate potential travel pattern
shifts
6. Cost estimates
7. An implementation plan
8. Public and agency involvement activities and documentation
The consultant team will distribute electronic copies of the draft report and seek stakeholder and agency comments. The
consultant team will revise the draft, as needed, based on feedback and provide five hardbound copies and one
electronic copy of the final report to the Local Government/Agency and State. The consultant team will also provide 10
hardbound copies of the executive summary and one electronic copy. The consultant team will work with the Local
Government/Agency and Stateto post the electronic version of the document to the study website.
